Some Windows vst's can run using Wine, but Wine is not Windows and Wine has some limitations and so some things might be ok and some things might not be ok.
Wine can need some additional bits added to it in order to get a vst plugin to run, things like reg entries (regedit) and dll overrides (which are Windows dll files that get added to Wine).
Using LinVst and Wine/Wine Staging,
EZ Drummer should be ok from what I remember.
Waves and Waves Central should be ok (maybe a few plugins won't run) and the details on how to set it up are on the previous page.
Wine has different releases and Wine Staging needs to be used for Waves Central.
